The Plenary of the Municipal Corporation has agreed this morning proclaiming Favorite Son of the Christ The Union of Miners, with commemoration of its centenary year in 2013.
The agreement has only been supported by the 11 councilors of the Popular Party, while the Socialist Party five abstained and the United Left voted against.
It should be noted that the steps taken in this effect has received a total of 2,200 accessions, which is an absolutely historic figure in our town, for five times the highest achieved to date for the granting of such awards.
Our Mayor, Francisco Bernabé, regretted that the two opposition political groups have not supported the proposal, as the Christ figure of Miners transcends the realm of the strictly religious and union becomes a feeling, in a symbol of our roots and our cultural identity.
In any case, he added that the important thing is that it has approved the award of this honorary distinction and that it will be delivered to the Brotherhood and his group on the occasion of the cultural days to be held within a few weeks honor the Lord of Mina.
